Sounds like a temperature problem to me.

Those eMachines, along with most other mass produced PC's, aren't big on the cooling solutions. Ok, they stick some half-decent components in there but if you skimp on the cooling then it means nothing.

Yeah. get some fans in the case or put everything in a bigger case. If you don't want to spend more money on it, just open up the side of the case and point a fan into it. See if that solves the problem.
